Onkyo Muse Series: Compact Hi-Fi Power for Modern Homes

The Onkyo Muse Series brings Japanese craftsmanship, Class D power and effortless streaming together in compact network amplifiers. With an aluminium front panel, quality speaker terminals, a ventilated San Kuzushi top plate and fanless circuitry, the Y-40 and Y-50 deliver refined hi-fi sound with a premium look, quiet operation and space-friendly design.

Power with Poise, Design with Intention

Axign Class D amplification with MOSFET outputs creates a dynamic, spacious soundstage and the control to drive everything from bookshelf speakers to larger floorstanders. A 5.46-inch colour LCD shows track details, playback information and an analogue-style VU meter, while the Onkyo Controller app enables simple settings and remote power control.

Ready for Vinyl, TV and Streaming

RCA, coaxial, phono, HDMI ARC, Ethernet and Wi-Fi inputs place Muse at the heart of a home audio system, with Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz Connect, AirPlay 2 and Google Cast built in. The Muse Y-40 offers 150W Class D power, MM phono, HDMI ARC, full streaming support and the same smart display, while the Muse Y-50 adds 250W Class D performance, premium construction, advanced HDMI connectivity and room calibration for larger rooms, demanding speakers and greater headroom.
